RUINED MY HOPE

38. Like a True Family

Let me drive you," said Panji who was still in the house.

"There is no need, after all Zidan there is a shuttle," Sintia timpal said when leaving the house.

Not how long came Zidan's pickup car which immediately parked in the yard of Sintia's house.

"That's Zidan's car," Sintia pointed out.

"But I want to be ushered papah mah," said Zidan.

Sintia only shook her head at her son's request. But Sintia could not forbid it either.

"Yes already then, but only now yes," said Sintia who tried to give understanding to her son.

"Yes," replied Zidan.

Sintia finally spoke to the driver if for today maybe Zidan will be delivered by his papa. Understanding what Sintia said, the driver finally went to school.

"Thank you sir" said Sintia.

"Sama-sama ma'am, then excuse me," said the driver who immediately left the yard of Sintia's house.

"Yeay, I've finally been delivered papah too" Zidan cheered.

"Yes you have left with papah well, mamah want to go now because it is noon," said Sintia who felt did not want to be escorted by Panji.

"Why not be with us," said the Panji linking the two halis.

"Ah no need to bother, let me go alone," said Sintia.

But at the time Sintia was about to step foot, Zidan suddenly pulled Sintia's hand.

"Bareng we are mah," said Zidan who grabbed the hand of Sintia.

Sintia was confused by her son. Sintia felt bad if she had to reject Zidan's wishes, but she could not agree because Sintia did not want to go with Panji.

For a moment Sintia was silent.

"Well," asked Zidan who slightly pulled Sintia's hand, thus making Sintia surprised.

"Come on this once, at least do this for Zidan not me" said Panji who felt that Sintia did not want to go with him.

"Alright," replied Sintia who finally granted her son's wish.

"Yeay," Zidan cheered who was feeling very happy.

Finally inevitably, Sintia must go with Panji and Zidan. They are like a harmonious family. They look like a real family. Zidan was also happy when he could be with his parents.

Throughout the journey Zidan was incessantly chattering. He kept talking about everything he saw.

"I'm so happy, I can finally be together mamah and papah" Zidan cheered who looked so happy.

"Papah is also happy dear," said Panji while driving and occasionally saw Sintia sitting in the back.

Sintia who heard her son's statement just smiled clumsyly. Sintia was confused as to what to talk to Zidan. Before going to Sintia's office, Panji escorted Zidan first.

"Finally nyampe as well" Zidan said before getting out of his car. Zidan greeted his mother and father one by one.

"Learn good dear, listen to the teacher, yes" said Sintia who immediately hugged and kissed her son's forehead.

"Okay mah!" zidan replied after greeting his mother.

"Drug dear," said Panji.

"Father drug," said Zidan who greeted his papa.

Half an hour later they finally arrived at Sintia's office.

"Thank you for driving me" Sintia said after getting off Panji's car.

"Yes both Sintia," said Panji who immediately left Sintia's office with a smile knot.

From a distance Reza saw Sintia get off the car. Just this time he saw Sintia delivered by car.

"Whose car is that?" reza's inner murmur that felt dislike when Sintia was there to drive him.

"Sintia wait!" pekik Reza who half ran after Sintia.

"Yes what's wrong?" ask Sintia who immediately returned her body.

"Hi, who was driving you?" asked Reza who linked the two halis.

"Oh, he's Panji" Sintia replied.

"What's? The pennant? How can you guys go together?" ask Reza again who still does not believe.

Without caring for Reza, Sintia also sped up her pace. Sintia feels in the interrogation with Reza's question. Who is he who always wants to know Sintia's business.

"What does he really want? Why does he always want to know my business," muttered Sintia.

Sintia feels uncomfortable with Reza's attitude lately. Sintia does not like every question she asks.

"Sintia wait!" pekik Reza who saw Sintia instead ran.

Instead of stopping his steps, Sintia actually accelerated his pace. Sintia doesn't want to if Reza keeps following her.

Sintia immediately entered his room. Sintia busied herself so that she would not think about her frustration with Reza.

"Why Sintia avoids me, instead" muttered Reza.

"Ah come on, I almost forgot if there was a meeting now," muttered inner Reza again.

Reza immediately rushed to the meeting room.

While elsewhere, Arin felt tired of his current activities. As a young mother, Arin felt very tired because almost every night he had to stay up late for the sake of his son.

Newborn babies sometimes wake up in the middle of the night just because they feel hungry. He will also wake up if he urinates.  For that must be sleepy, Arin must wake up.

While Reza sometimes he helped, but sometimes he also fell asleep with his pulse.

Eaa. eaa..

"Cup, cup dear do not cry yes," said Arin while holding her cute little baby.

Slowly but surely the cry stopped instantly, the baby began to fall asleep in Arin's lap. Arin was still swinging her child using a baby carrier. Until finally the baby fell asleep.

Slowly Arin immediately put the baby to sleep very carefully.

"It's like it's like being a mother. All this is so exhausting. If only mother was still there, maybe at this time I would not be too troubled like this," murmured Arin.

"Had the mother still been there, perhaps I would have been more attentive and more affectionate towards the mother, too" muttered Arin who suddenly recalled his late mother.

Beside her son Arin began to glaze over while looking at her baby deeply. Seeing the baby fall asleep makes Arin feel calm. Arin just glazed over remembering her mother.

Arin recalled that when he first entered Junior High School, Arin preferred to spend his time in school. Arin was busy with her boyfriend when her mother was sick.

"I'm sorry Arin ma'am, because Arin still can't be a good boy. Arin has not been able to repay the services of mother until finally mother is gone. Arin can only pray that the mother is placed in the best place," muttered Arin who prayed for his mother.

The most difficult thing is to miss someone who is gone. Likewise with Arin who at the time was missing her mother, Arin could not do anything but pray for her.
